Abstract

The insurgency in Iraq is analyzed through the conceptual-historical framework of the range of Islamist responses to foreign domination. The pattern of different clusters of Islamism over a period of time is discussed, concluding that the insurgency in Iraq is durable and will probably be persistent till the end of U.S. occupation.
